If you prioritize health tracking and sports performance, the Sennheiser Momentum Sport is better suited for you with its heart rate and body temperature features, plus it is sweatproof and dustproof for durability during exercise. However, if budget is your main concern, the Soundcore P20i offers good sound quality and comfort at a much lower price. The Sennheiser delivers exceptional build quality and lower latency which is great for gaming, but it's more costly. For casual listening and a balance between cost and features, the Soundcore may suffice, with decent battery life and sound quality for less investment. Both are good for travel and exercise, but the Sennheiser has more advanced features like active noise cancelling and is optimized for both Android and Apple devices. Give Feedback

Amelia Schwanke | January 2024
"We hadn't been expecting a new pair of dedicated sports buds but the surprise was nonetheless exciting. I got to try out the new buds at CES 2024 and while they have stayed true to delivering that "signature" Sennheiser sound, with a wide soundstage and strong sense of detail, it’s the extra wearable tech inside them that stands out to me against the best workout headphones."
